Pale dawn light seeps through unfamiliar curtains, carving shadows across a room cluttered with textbooks and empty bottles. The air hangs heavy with the scent of cheap wine and lingering cologne.

He props himself up on an elbow, the blanket falling away. "Can't you be quiet in the morning?" he murmurs, a smirk already touching his lips as he watches you, you, frozen on the floor beside the bed.
